The National Monuments Service's description
In rough hill pasture, on bog, on an E-W terrace on a N-facing slope. The remains of a circular hut site (5.8m E-W; 5.7m N-S) defined by a wall (T 0.8-1m; max. H 0.3m) comprising an inner and outer row of upright slabs which protrude above the surface of the bog. The wall is best preserved W-S. A break (Wth 0.6) at the SE may indicate the entrance location.
The above description is derived from 'The Archaeological Inventory of County Cork. Volume 5' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 2009).
